Rapid Prototypes
For our designs, we all had a general idea that we wanted to make the container that housed our sensors and Ada Featherline Board to be similar to a car cupholder. Each team member drew some designs of what they pictured for the container. There were similar components across all of our designs, such as the bottom containing all of our electrical components and sensors. The only alterations were how the bottle will be secured in the container. Below are each of our designs:
Prototype Model A1-3
Model A1:
360 degree base support model.
Model A2:
Single neck, center support model.
Model A3:
Three pronged base support model.
